在我国这样一个儒家传统影响很深的国家,研究领导者的品德对其绩效的影响更具有特殊重要的意义。在儒家思想的熏陶下,中国人对领导者的评价向来强调德才兼备,特别注重领导者的“品德”,员工对领导者的期望也往往不局限于工作职责的范围。因此,我国领导者的品德对其绩效的达成就显得特别重要,具有特别的意义。在西方国家中,员工可以将领导者的工作能力和个人品德区分看待。而儒家强调“修身、齐家、治国、平天下”,第一位的就是要“修身”,然后才能谈到“齐家、治国、平天下”。因此,在中国,员工往往难以容忍一个虽然能力较强但品德不良的领导。在员工接受领导都已经成了问题的情况下,领导者的绩效就更无从谈起了。希望本文能够唤起对领导者品德尤其是其中思想和道德品质的重视。 In a country like ours that has a profound influence on Confucian tradition, it is of special significance to study the influence of leader’s morality on its performance. Under the influence of Confucianism, Chinese people have always emphasized the evaluation of the leader as having both ability and political integrity, paying particular attention to the “moral character” of the leader and the employee’s expectations of the leader are often not limited to the scope of their job responsibilities. Therefore, it is of special significance for our leaders’ moral character to achieve their performance with particular significance. In Western countries, employees can distinguish between their ability to work and personal qualities. The Confucian emphasis on “self-cultivation, Qi family, governing the country, the world,” the first is to “self-cultivation” before we talk about “Qi family, governing the country, the world.” Therefore, in China, employees often find it hard to tolerate a leader who is capable, but not good, in his ability. In the case of staff acceptance of leadership has become a problem, the performance of the leaders even more talk about it. I hope this article can arouse the attention of the leaders, especially the ideological and moral qualities.
